Adventures In Middle-earth

Cubicle 7 Loses Middle Earth License

Bilbo had has an unexpected party, and Cubicle 7 announced some unexpected news.

They will not be published The One Ring RPG beyond 2020, as a casualty of this will abandon plans for the One Ring Second Edition and Adventures in Middle-earth™, and they’ll cease working with partners Sophisticated Games.

We have some very unfortunate and unexpected news to share. Contractual differences arose recently which we have been unable to resolve, and so we have decided to end our licensing agreement with Sophisticated Games. It is with regret that we have made this very tough decision to withdraw.

This means we will cease publishing The One Ring and Adventures in Middle-earth™ in the first half of 2020. Unfortunately, this doesn’t give us enough time to release the much-anticipated The One Ring – The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying Game second edition.

Cubicle 7 partnered with Sophisticated Games in 2010 to publish the first edition of The One Ring and was all set to release a second edition of the game in November until a dispute arose between the two publishers. The new edition was already written and edited when Cubicle 7 decided to end the agreement and cancel the release because they felt that they were unable to support the new edition further. With the pending release canceled, Cubicle 7 is facing an extensive refunding process for preorders, a potential loss on the game, and the possibility of disappointing their fan base. Cubicle 7 attempted to mitigate the damage by offering customers 125% of the value of their order in Cubicle 7 store credit.

Emails with instructions on pre-orders refunds are already going out to customers, and Cubicle 7 ask you to get in touch at info@cubicle7games.com if you should have had one, and have not.

If you qualify for a refund you can take it, no questions asked or accept 125% of your order of in-store credit instead.

Sophisticated Games are yet to comment.
